I thought that apart from the lad up front with red hair, Oxford were lightweights.
I fear that a Keith Hill inspired Rochdale will bully our lads and cannot see past a 1-1 draw at best.

I don't think that we have ever beaten Rochdale. They are our ultimate bogey side and God knows there are a lot of bogey sides about. I feel that we will struggle without Tony's inspirational and motivational half time team talk but nevertheless I feel it in my bones that we might get something out of this game. A season defining win 1-0. I would love it to be a last minute penalty to exorcise the ghost of that horrendous match at the Ricoh last year when they got that mickey mouse penalty in the last minute.
I'm going, so 2-0 and a Sordell hattrick, before my then heading off to my night school maths exam.
We're unbeaten at home, they are toward the top of the table. Has a draw written all over it. But if we are to lose our unbeaten home record, this could well be the game. We better not be over-confident after a narrow win where we were gifted one goal.
1-0.....heart in mouths last half hour...but we end the week on a high. Well that what I'm hoping. But I don't know the Rochdale team...if they are a bullying attack I fear for our defence. We look very vulnerable as soon as a team uses their physical strength

5-0.
I remember my school days. Rochdale were always the team that finished bottom of Division Four (age clue there) but never got relegated as whoever was due to come up, their stadium wasn't good enough.

Everyone thinks we'll win, so obviously a loss.
Gonna predict a draw again, worked last time. 2-2 Agyei and McCann.

Well you go in, they allocate you a seat and then they give you a pencil and a piece of paper with questions on it.How does that work?
I am expecting it to last an hour.
Hope that helps.
I find it remarkable that we are 9pts from 6th place with a game in hand!
Tomorrow with a win and other teams dropping points we could reduce that to 6points with a game in hand!

All depends on how we start. Start slow and they get an early goal i can see them sitting back and just defending their lead, with the chance of a counter if we over press and loose the ball.
Hope Venus can get them fired up and ready from the get go. I'd play an unchanged side and formation. 8k and a 1-1 draw
Just hope the off field protests don't effect the game too much....

Hence the maths exam.I meant Sordell scoring a hat trick and us winning 2-0
Two wins in the space of a few days could be the catalyst we need to get moving. Stevenson running the show would be lovely.
Christ, if Rochdale can turn things around so quickly then I'm sure we can. Charlton apart we have played well in all of Venus's games, so hopefully he can get them fired up for tomorrow. Can't wait.
Finally got my 2-1 so while I'm on a roll it's going to be 3-1 you heard it heard it here first.
